Don't bunt. Aim out of the ballpark.

I don't know about you, but when I read that I was motivated! My goal every waking day is to be motivated but more importantly to stay motivated. Not by money, people, or trivial things, but by my own drive, passion, and desire to expand every ounce of my talent. Sure, if you bunt you may get on base and then what you do from there can be successful; but like a homerun, if you aim for the stars and miss, you will end up amongst the clouds... still in the sky! Cliché, sure. I like to think of it as challenging. Optimistic. Glass half empty, or half full. That's me, You choose!
I am a person who is constantly inspired. I choose to be around people who are "better" than me. In turn, it makes me better. Some people surround themselves with "less thans." For example, take the girl who asks the "not so pretty girl" to go to the club; she does this so she stands out. Ridiculous! I say, find the prettiest girl because then when you stand out, you are amongst the best! We can also take the guy who flaunts his possessions in order to get the girl. Lame! I say flaunt your: brain, character, chivalry, whit, and in turn you'll possess the better girl. All the same goal right? Attention. Approval. Ego stroke. A date... the difference between the two is a choice.
Point being you have two choices, Regardless the situation. Although mine are silly (I know you all laughed because its true) there are choices in life that aren't. You can choose to be amongst the average with no: challenge, growth and potential. Or you can choose to be amongst the elite (not in a pretentious way) whose lives are constant reflections of: sacrifice, depth, dedication, and uniqueness.
Which one are you?
LIVE IT UP!!!!
